By Associated Press SAN DIEGO (AP)-The Oakland A's have squashed speculation that assistant general manager David Forst is in the mix to become the next general manager of the San Diego Padres

By Associated Press OAKLAND - Mike Napoli homered, Joe Saunders pitched five strong innings and the Los Angeles Angels closed out an impressive regular season with a 5-3 victory over the A's on Sunday.

By emperor nobody Hey, wait, this is like, 35% baseball at most. It's 5-0 Angels as we start the 9th, and the stills from the game indicate just how intense the A's offensive attack has been tonight.

By Nico For all the hoopla over hits and diving catches, baseball often comes down to the details in between.

By Josh Levin Under Billy Beane, the Oakland A's won by scraping together undervalued assets. Since the rest of baseball has started valuing assets properly, the A's are having a harder time. The same thing is happening to baseball's leading propeller-heads.

By Taj Adib Based upon these stereotypes, Billy Beane was, again - rightfully or not, more highly regarded than Sabean by many in the baseball world as he seemed to be more creative, progressive and efficient than his Giants counterpart. But as of Winter 2008, that dynamic has begun to change.

By Matt Sussman I'm still loving how Oakland traded Joe Blanton — a below average, not-at-all-dominating righthanded pitcher — away for three prospects.
